As we have discovering in this series, we can do three things to help our pupils learn: we can create a positive learning environment. we can make pupils think hard but efficiently, and we can plan for deliberate practice.
In the last few articles, I have argued that, once new information has been encoded into pupils’ long-term memories, we have to help reduce the likelihood of them forgetting it and increase its storage strength so that pupils can access that information at a later stage. We also have to help pupils improve the retrieval strength of that information so that pupils can recall it with ease and efficiency as and when needed.
